This particular merchant has a couple of locations and I can truly save. I’ve never had one bad experience from the location that is perfect just around every single thing you may possibly need to the customer service to the cleanliness to the upkeep to the people that’s even at these locations. Everything is always beautiful from beginning to end. I would recommend them to anyone any day of the year.

I stayed here for 4 nights on the Chicago leg of a recent road trip. If you don't mind sharing a bathroom with 2 other rooms, I definitely recommend this place. I'll likely come back next visit to Chicago.

A Wonderful Stay at Chicago Avenue Inn I recently had the pleasure of staying at Chicago Avenue Inn for 1 nights, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality by host, who made sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The property itself was exactly as described—features like cleanliness and amenities. The location was perfect, with attractions and near by shopping, making it easy to explore the area. I also appreciate well-equipped kitchen, Wi-Fi and a cozy outdoor space. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, family-friendly stay. I can’t wait to return! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The hotel was easy to find. The building is charming with cozy rooms. The location was perfect for my trip because it’s located near the beach and major highways.

ONE-NIGHT STAY I had an incredibly pleasant experience here. This is the nicest hostel stay I’ve had. It was a proper, clean and welcoming living space. My one-day stay cost me merely $60. They granted a later check-out for a small fee. A caveat was the misleading listing. I believed the stay to be your own bedroom and bathroom. The image preview and description was confusing. The hostel bathroom was as clean as an Airbnb, 5-star cleanliness, the kitchen was spotless. My favorite amenities are: - Yale E-Lock required for entrance. Three points of entrance that require your code. - Brita (purified) Water container - materials available for making coffee/tea - Free WiFi, a living-room with a TV, AC - Bath towel, wash cloth, bath soap, conditioner, shampoo Additionally, the other private guests kept to themselves, they were respectful. Definitely would revisit, I’m sharing my experience with my friends. Cost-friendly, I felt safe, and it was a ‘demure’ neighborhood.

I booked a room at Chicago Avenue Inn, not only was it a good price but, as i walked in it felt very welcoming. It was also neat and tidy like a hotel room but better because it was easy access with coded doorknobs instead of physical keys. As it started getting late i got into bed and it was incredibly relaxing and peaceful. When my stay came to an end, I got to meet the owner and she welcomed me and thanked me for my stay. I loved my stay! If I ever come back to Chicago I will be booking again .
